In this tutorial, we’ll create a simple real-time collaborative code editor. You'll discover why Node.js is ideal for real-time and collaborative applications. The code is mostly written in vanilla JavaScript without the need for large frameworks or third-party WebSocket services.

Description

In Your First Week With Node.js, 2nd Edition we’ve demonstrated how to create a Node.js project, manage dependencies with Docker, use a database, and debug your application. In this tutorial, we’ll use all those concepts to create a simple real-time collaborative code editor where any number of developers can examine, edit, and share snippets. You'll discover why Node.js is ideal for real-time and collaborative applications. The code is mostly written in vanilla JavaScript without the need for large frameworks or third-party WebSocket services.
